    Voxel Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.80SF & v. 1.0.2.80.4SF & v. 1.0.2.80.5SF

    I keep getting Wifi drops, I think the two TP-LINK router/APs might be the culprit. My house is a 2000 sq ft log cabin, two of the APs are in the main living room in opposite corners, perhaps they are too close? I think using the wifi of the R7800 and all three Eeros would be overkill.

    Voxel Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.80SF & v. 1.0.2.80.4SF & v. 1.0.2.80.5SF

    Should I keep this as my main router and shut off wifi and remove the two TP-LINK routers I have been using as APs, because I am introducing an Eero 3 pack that I want to use as APs (all Eeros will be hard wired). Or should I just use the Eero system and drop the R7800? I have 60-70 devices...

    Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.76SF & v. 1.0.2.76.1SF

    I have the newest Voxel firmware installed. I have a router in AP mode connected to one of the ports of my R7800, then another router in AP mode connected to a port of that router. That AP is set in its' own configuration to the IP address 192.168.0.202 statically, which is out of the range of...

    Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.75.1SF & v. 1.0.2.75.2SF

    I changed my IPV6 from 6to4tunnel to pass through and it seems to be better, I'll need to keep testing long term . I read somewhere that 6to4tunnel was the way to go. My ISP is only IPv4. Any advice on this?

    Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.75.1SF & v. 1.0.2.75.2SF

    I'm having problems with Facebook loading images and comments. This happened in the past few days. I've played with certain settings, but can't find the magic setting that fixes the problem. I think making IPv6 Filtering to Open looks like it fixes it for a few minutes, but the issue comes back...

    settings that hurt your router (example shutting off IPv6)

    Can we discuss settings that people shut off that sound good in theory, but actually screw things up? I just found out Chromecasts and other things work better with IPv6 turned on, but I had shut if off because I thought I should shut it off because my ISP doesn't offer IPv6

    TP-LINK C3150v2 wifi constantly hangs

    I feel like an idiot. Turns out the culprit was the DNS server I was using. They touted 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1 to be super fast and having privacy. I should have known because downloads were fast, it was just the initial loading taking time. Changed to my isp DNS and everything was back to normal...

    TP-LINK C3150v2 wifi constantly hangs

    I believe "standard" is the equivalent of shutting it off on my model.

    TP-LINK C3150v2 wifi constantly hangs

    I tried that by itself, and it may or may not have helped. Today I will be testing smart connect with just 1 SSID.

    TP-LINK C3150v2 wifi constantly hangs

    Tried some of these settings and no improvement. Still hangs and takes 10 seconds to load some pages.

    TP-LINK C3150v2 wifi constantly hangs

    My house is pretty far from everyone else, I do not pick up my neighbors WiFi at all. I am going to set it to a particular channel though, so it won't try to change channels while actively using it now that I think about it.

    TP-LINK C3150v2 wifi constantly hangs

    I have a TP-LINK Archer C3150v2, and every now and then the wifi hangs. I've tried every which setting I can think of, and no luck. Any tips, or could the router probably be faulty? Perhaps any other terms to google other than "C3150 wifi hangs"? By hanging, I mean sometimes I stay connected...

    My phone can only maximize speed in one particular far off place in my apartment

    TURNS OUT, the phone only maximizes WiFi speed when charging. Have you ever heard of such a thing? Top result: plugged in not plugged in plugged in not plugged in plugged in plugged in

    My phone can only maximize speed in one particular far off place in my apartment

    Forgot to mention, my link rate is ALWAYS at 866 when I perform these speed tests. Even when my link rate goes down to about 320, it still usually downloads at 140. So, 866=140 and 320=140. And I have tested with MU-MIMO on and off, with no discernible difference.
